d, and prepared, and searched it. 28:28. And he said to man: Behold the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom: and to depart from evil, is understanding. Job Chapter 29 Job relates his former happiness, and the respect that all men shewed him. 29:1. Job also added, taking up his parable, and said: 29:2. Who will grant me, that I might be according to the months past, according to the days in which God kept me? 29:3. When his lamp shined over my head, and I walked by his light in darkness? 29:4. As I was in the days of my youth, when God was secretly in my tabernacle? 29:5. When the Almighty was with me: and my servants round about me? 29:6. When I washed my feet with butter, and the rock poured me out rivers of oil? 29:7. When I went out to the gate of the city, and in the street they prepared me a chair? 29:8.

My glory shall always be renewed, and my bow in my hand shall be repaired. 29:21. They that heard me, waited for my sentence, and being attentive held their peace at my counsel. 29:22. To my words they durst add nothing, and my speech dropped upon them. 29:23. They waited for me as for rain, and they opened their mouth as for a latter shower. 29:24.
